DAnderson 35% fg 33% 3pts Wesley 29% fg 32% 3pts Alston 32% fg 28% 3pts Barry 40% fg 35% 3pts Head is the only players that's making his shots 40% fg 50% 3pts (but JVG isn't going to play him much because he's a rookie ) We should have brought back CASSELL! even though he's old he can still score/ lead a team/ clutch player ..... 15.5pts 8.1 assist 40% fg 39% 3pts but his impact on the team is alot more.
Rafer should be kicked off the team! He hasn't done squat for us this season! JVG should look into playing Head more. He's the most consistent guard we have right now! Sorry had to vent. Thank You and have a nice day!
How can the guards be shooting this badly? Rafer had a decent 3-point percentage on a terrible Toronto team last season with no superstars who commanded a double team. Yet he comes to the Rockets where Yao and T-Mac draw the attention of 3 or 4 of the other team's defenders and the man is shooting 28% from beyond the arc?! Derek Anderson going 0-7 from the floor last night?! Even Jon Barry is down to 35% from 3-point land. What the hell happened to this team's offense? They're 2nd to last in the league in scoring, ahead of only Orlando. And don't look now, but the Rockets have the worst record in the West. At what point do the excuses end and the players and coaches start becoming accountable?
When the shots start falling which will be when T-Mac and Yao are both healthy and the team develops chemistry
I don’t think the problem with the guards is that they can’t shoot. It’s that they depend on the outside shot way too much. When a team is old and slow like the Rockets are, they become too dependent on 3-pointers. All teams go through shooting slumps like the Rockets are currently. But most other teams are capable of manufacturing points in other ways besides taking perimeter shots. Whether it’s getting more fast break points, attacking the basket more, post-ups, and moving without the ball to get a medium distance shot. These are the things the Rockets guards are not doing, either because they’re not capable or because they’re playing scared. Not surprisingly, Luther Head, the only guard that is capable of doing more than just take 3-pointers and the only guard that hasn’t played scared, is the only one that has a decent field goal percent.
All is JVG's fault. Remember last year, before tmac talk with Jeff, he also don't know how to play in JVG's system. I think here has some misunderstanding between Jeff and our guards. Our guards are too worry about the plan and Jeff's reaction so they lost their confidence to shoot. They are too worry about to make mistake because their coach is so .....mean? or.... So they should figure out what is the ballance between shoot and pass inside.
